    To be fair these pointers are standard etiquette anywhere as well, so these are good pointers anywhere you go
  • @BrixtonTone
    People suddenly stopping after taking just two steps off the top of an escalator is the worst ! 🤬
  • @djm58sk
    I've been to London at least a dozen times and I still find your videos useful as reminders, and because there's always something new to learn. See you in May.

    I started watching Love and London videos before my first trip there in 2019. Your videos are, by far, the best. You are very detailed and informative, even showing in your videos how to do things, not just saying it. The visual aspect helps so much. I am taking a holiday in London this year in April, so I wanted to watch some more of your videos as a refresher and to learn something new. And I do learn new things every time I watch your videos. I would have thought that this particular video would have been more of a refresher, but I still learned new things like with the street performers. I had no idea what they had to do to get to perform there. It is very nice to know so that they can be tipped appropriately if someone does watch their performance. You give such great knowledge and advice, and I greatly appreciate what you do! It has made my trips there better. This April will be the third time that I have traveled to London for a holiday. I have watched your videos before each trip. I love London, and I love your Love and London videos. You are amazing. Thank you!

    I always wonder why people never ever remove their backpacks in a crowded subway or bus. I really hate it when grungy luggage rubs against me. Common courtesy.
  • @marcardisson3679
    I take a school group to London for spring break each year, and this is essentially the talk I give before we head to the airport. Now I have a great video to show to complement my talk! Appreciate your channel! We'll see you in two weeks!

    Can confirm. I’m currently in London on a 1-week holiday and everything Jess says is true. The food here is amazing with even the most non-descript pub having incredible savory pies or Asian fusion or something unexpectedly delicious! I tried Persian food for the first time last night in Notting Hill and was blown away. I learned quickly using Google Maps on my phone to step to the side and not amble slowly with my head glued to the screen. Thanks for all the tips!
  • @jennymelisa2528
    I’ve discovered your channel fairly recently and I absolutely love your work/videos. Thanks 🙏 for sharing.
  • @josituretta5682
    Love the videos, feeling a bit scared going to London by myself. Your videos certainly help to ease the anxiety. Had two brain surgeries for brain cancer and have just completed my 2 year treatment and this is my present to myself for ringing that bell. Ty you are awesome!
  • @Nick-13
    Excellent advice Jess - and useful wherever you are too !
  • @walterlamore704
    Thanks Jess. Visiting at end of next month. Love your videos. Living in Washington DC, all the tips in this video hit home.
  • I love London and I love your channel. Heading back next month for my 5th visit and I'm so excited for it because its my first spring time visit. 😍😍
  • Beatles fans don't forget the famous crossing outside Abbey Road Studios is near St Johns Wood tube station and not Abbey Road Station on the DLR (PS. Good to see the return of the purple mittens)
  • @NicholasNA
    The Zebra crossing outside Abbey Rd Studios isn’t actually the crossing on the Beatles album cover. That crossing disappeared years ago. The current crossing on Abbey Rd is in a different location to the one on the Beatles cover.

    "For breathing, we are charged 15 pounds...." love it! Great informative video!
  • Simply, all these are basics that apply not only in London. Otherwise, I love London. I've been there four times, the last time before Covid, and I'm really looking forward to having the opportunity to come again.
  • I wish all the tourists coming to Prague watched this video :D Life would be so much easier for us living and working in the city.
  • @JoaoRennatoo
    I absolutely love your videos! I was in London just a week ago, and every single time we were on the escalators in the subway, and I saw those signs saying 'stay on your right', I remembered watching your videos, teaching me to do just that. It was just amazing ^^
